Hi, I'm looking to replace my current desktop setup of 2 yamaha HS7 studio monitors with an FRFR active speaker/cab. I'm never going to play out with whatever FRFR solution I get, I just need something I can play at low volumes (baby in the house now) without sacrificing the tone/character of what the Axe-Fx III can offer.
I've read a lot of posts about the different options out there and naturally gravitate towards either a CLR (if obtainable) or something from Xitone. I would assume in my case a 10in speaker may be best since I'll always be at low levels, but there is only one option offered between the two companies (Xitone 10in open back cab). This one looks like a decent option, but I haven't found feedback on it yet and I wish it was a open/closed convertible back like the MBritt model since I do play mostly rock/metal.
Anyways, I've never had the chance to play any of these so I'm just curious what others think of what will work best. Thanks in advance!
EDIT: I figure people may ask why I'm transitioning away from studio monitors, which are usually best for low volume. I play in a small, untreated room and standing and moving around so I'm never in the correct listening spot. A FRFR cab that can disperse the sound like a regular guitar app and sound good no matter where I am seems like a better option. Plus I need the desk space, portability, etc.
